I’ve worked harder on tournaments the past few months since then than I had at anything in poker before. This lack of consistent effort & focus directly contributed to me being a long term loser. Studying tournaments gave me jolt of energy and since I’ve really focused on my overall game intensely. As I’m 27 years old, have been playing poker for 4 years but never really putting in the true effort it takes to succeed at even the smallest levels. That realization really drove me the last few months .
This all led to me binking Event #1 at the Heartland poker tour in St. Louis. 3 way chop for 42k each. I know 1 stand alone live score means absolutely nothing, however this is big for me, and my pursuit of poker. Obviously, variance, run good, and all that played a part, but I also 100% believe what’ve I’ve learned playing small stakes mtts on Global directly led to my live success. Much appreciation for y’all mentioning tournaments as an option!
The dream is alive. LONG LONG way to go and plenty of work to do.
GL all
Great to hear a good report that encourages folks to work hard at the game, and that the possibility of success is within their grasp.
Keep up the good work, and please keep sharing!
